Corazon del Sol Malbec 2018
Valle de Uco, Tunuyán, Central Region, Mendoza, ArgentinaThis malbec is grown among the rocky soils of Uco's Los Chacayes, at 1100m altitude and from their estate vineyard (planted 2008) plus neighbouring 100 year old vineyards in Agrelo and Perdriel. It is aged for 14 months in second and third use French oak. This is a brooding red, teeming with wild blackberry, black plum, black cherry, threaded with dusky violets, earthy notes, peppery spice, and darts of reduction and tar. Acidity is tight and bright, lifted with altitude.Tasted: 23 September 2021Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:ON | $34.95 | 750ml | consignment |
